I finally summoned up the courage to tell hubby how I was feeling. My struggles with accepting my changing body. He’s definitely reassured me… Seems to think I have the ‘pregnancy glow’ but I’m not convinced.

I think he may have realised that being pregnant isnt a walk in the park.

Today I’ve done too much. I’m used to getting loads of stuff done on a Saturday but I just can’t do it. Needed a nap earlier to function normally and now I’m struggling to stay awake during the rugby (and I REALLY want to watch it!). I suppose it could be from my flu jab this morning making me tired. definitely looking forward to bed today.

I’ve been invited to a friend’s birthday… Bowling. I’m honestly not sure I can go. And it sucks. But my back hurts doing regular day-to-day, so I don’t think bowling is a wise move. October is a mental month for us so I definitely don’t want to overdo it.

I am totally drained. It makes me so glad that I don’t have to deal with this commute on a daily basis like I used to. I am tired. All the steps have totally worn me out and feel breathless all the time.

I often feel breathless and I’m blaming baby for shuffling everything around and squishing my lungs.

Big props all you mummies-to-be that do this on a daily basis. Being on a train whilst pregnant is not fun.

I do seem to have a bit of a belly which is giving me a bit of confidence that things are progressing as they should.

I am struggling to accept how I look. This seems really pathetic and should be the last thing on my mind, but ive always been tiny. 4ft11 and never weighed more than 7st2. I’ve always had a flat stomach and always been a size 6-8. Now I’m starting to spread.

I am happy as I know this means baby is shuffling everything around but its still weird. I don’t feel comfortable in anything. I’m too ‘big’ for my regular clothes, but not big enough for maternity. I find myself living in my Pilates trousers whenever I’m at home.

I guess this is another pregnancy stage to go through – the stage where nothing fits.

In other news for the first time in years, I actually have nails. which is weird. It’s super weird on a touch screen. The silly thing is, because I’ve never had nails, I’ve never learnt how to file them properly and to shape them. Think I need to get some lessons from my sister.
